The quadratic function y = -x2 + 10x - 8 models the height of a trestle on a bridge. The x-axis represents ground level.
To find where the section of the bridge meets ground level, solve 0 = -x2 + 10x - 8.
Where does this section of the bridge meet ground level?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.876, 9.123

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is [tex]y=-x^2+10-8[/tex]

It meets the ground level when [tex]y[/tex] is 0

[tex]\Rightarrow -x^2+10x-8=0\\\Rightarrow x^2-10x+8=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{10\pm \sqrt{(-10)^2-4(1)(8)}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{10\pm \sqrt{68}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=5\pm \sqrt{17}\\\Rightarrow x=0.876,\ 9.123[/tex]

Thus, it touches the ground at two points given above

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are to calculate the amount of earning that PNG can make in a year in cocoa export of 400 000 tonnes at K2 353 per tonne.

This will be:

= Number of tonnes × Amount per ton

= 400000 × k2353

= K941,200,000

Therefore, the answer is K941,200,000

A private university is accepting applications for enrollment.Out of 2,000 applicants,950 meet the GPA requirements,600 volunteer for community service,and 250 both meet the GPA requirements and volunteer.Which statement correctly describes the probability that an applicant meets the GPA requirements or volunteers?

A: Because some applicants volunteer and meet the GPA requirements, the events are mutually exclusive.Thus, the probability is 65%.

B: Because some applicants volunteer and meet the GPA requirements, the events are not mutually exclusive.Thus, the probability is 65%.

C: Because some applicants volunteer and meet the GPA requirements, the events are not mutually exclusive.Thus, the probability is 77.5%.

D: Because no applicants volunteer and meet the GPA requirements, the events are not mutually exclusive.Thus, the probability is 77.5%.

Answers

Answer:

It is B - Because some applicants volunteer and meet the GPA requirements, the events are not mutually exclusive.Thus, the probability is 65%.

>3

Answer:  Choice B

Because some applicants volunteer and meet the GPA requirements, the events are not mutually exclusive.

Thus, the probability is 65%.

====================================================

Explanation:

950 people meet the GPA requirements. Also, 250 both meet the GPA requirements and volunteer. This must mean 950-250 = 700 people only meet the GPA requirements, but don't volunteer. Let A = 700.

600 people volunteer. 250 both meet the GPA requirements and volunteer. This must mean 600-250 = 350 people volunteer only (ie they don't meet the GPA requirements). Let B = 350

Let C = 250 to represent the number who meet the GPA requirements and volunteer.

-----------------

In summary we found that,

A = 700 people meet the GPA requirements only (they don't volunteer)B = 350 people volunteer only (they don't meet the GPA requirements)C = 250 people both meet the GPA requirements and volunteer

That means A+B+C = 700+350+250 = 1300 people either meet the GPA requirements, volunteer, or both. This is out of 2000 people

1300/2000 = 13/20 = 0.65 = 65%

That calculation tells us that 65% of the 2000 applicants fit the conditions we're after. So that's the probability of randomly selecting someone to fit those conditions.

Because the value of C is not zero, this means we don't have mutually exclusive events. It's possible that someone fits both criteria. Mutually exclusive events cannot happen at the same time.

In other words, if we did have mutually exclusive events, then someone couldn't both meet the GPA requirements and volunteer at the same time (they would have to pick one or the other but not both).

At : a.m. the angle of elevation of the sun for one city is . If the height of a monument is approximately , what is the length of the shadow it will cast at that time? Round to the nearest foot.

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question;

At 11:30 a.m. the angle of elevation of the sun for one city is 55.7°. If the height of a monument is approximately 555 ft, what is the length of the shadow it will cast at that time? Round to the nearest foot.

Answer:

the length of the shadow will be 379 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question and as represented in the diagram below;

height of monument = 555 ft

angle of elevation = 55.7°

From the image below, this makes a right angled triangle

we know that the some of the interior angles of a triangle is 180

so

∠ABC + ∠BCA + ∠CAB = 180°

90° + 55.7° + ∠CAB  = 180°

∠CAB = 180° - 145.7°

∠CAB = 34.3°

Now, using sine rule;

BC / sinA = AB / sinC

so we substitute

BC / sin( 34.3°) = 555 / sin( 55.7° )

BC / 0.563526 = 555 / 0.826098

we cross multiply

BC × 0.826098 = 0.563526 × 555

BC × 0.826098 = 312.75693

BC = 312.75693 / 0.826098

BC = 378.595 ≈ 379 ft

Therefore, the length of the shadow will be 379 ft

A) g(x)=(3-x)2
B) g(x)=3-x2
C) g(x)=2-x2
D) g(x)=(2-x)2

Answers

Answer:  choice C)  g(x) = 2-x^2

============================================================

Explanation:

The y intercept of the blue curve f(x) is (0,5)

The y intercept of the red curve g(x) is (0,2)

We see that the y intercept has been shifted down 3 units when going from f(x) to g(x). Overall, the entire f(x) curve has been shifted down 3 units to get the g(x) curve.

Based on that, we would say

g(x) = f(x) - 3

g(x) = (5-x^2) - 3

g(x) = -x^2 + (5 - 3)

g(x) = -x^2 + 2

g(x) = 2 - x^2 ..... answer is choice C

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is correct answer bro...

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

So first off, two numbers that are to the same root can be combined.

In this case we can combine these two values, since they are to the 5th root and are both 7:

[tex]\sqrt[5]{7*7^4}[/tex]

=

[tex]\sqrt[5]{49^4}[/tex]

This can be broken down into 7^2

This gets us [tex]\sqrt[5]{7^5}[/tex]

Remember that we add exponents, together, so in this case it adds up to 5.

You might be wondering...well if its 7^2 and 7^4, wouldnt it be 7^6?

Well, remember this. One of the 7s in 7^2 is from the 7^4, so tecnically it is 7^3 + 7^2, which is 7^5

Anyway, now we have:

[tex]\sqrt[5]{7^5}[/tex]

When you root a exponent, it works like subtraction.

In this case we have a exponent of 5, and a root of 5.

This is 5-5 = 0

So it will just be 7. Because the square and root cancel each other out, leaving us with 7.

Hope this helps!
